The results show that the cellular accumulation of Au@TAcoGal increases by 30-70%, and the cell survival rate is less than 25% under X-ray irradiation. The antineoplastic results show that Au@TAcoGal exhibits a higher therapeutic effect, and the tumor inhibition rate can reach 84.21%.Two sulfonate ester derivatives of anthraquinone, 1-tosyloxy-2-methoxy-9,10-anthraquinone (1a) and 1-trifluoromethylsulfonoxy-2-methoxy-9,10-anthraquinone (1b), were prepared and their ability to produce strong acids upon photoexcitation was examined. It is shown that these compounds generate acid with a yield that increases with light intensity when the applied photon dose is held constant. Additional experiments show that the rate of acid generation increases fourfold when visible light (532 nm) laser pulses are combined with ultraviolet (355 nm) compared with ultraviolet alone. Continuous wave diode laser photolysis also affects acid generation with a rate that depends quadratically on the light intensity. Density functional theory calculations, laser flash photolysis, and chemical trapping experiments support a mechanism, whereby an initially formed triplet state (T1) is excited to a higher triplet state which in turn undergoes homolysis of the RS(O2)-OAr bond. Secondary reactions of the initially formed sulfonyl radicals produce strong acids. It is demonstrated that high-intensity photolysis of either 1a or 1b can initiate cationic polymerization of ethyl vinyl ether.Developing high-performance Fe-based ammonia catalysts through simple and cost-efficient methods has received an increased level of attention. Herein, we report for the first time, the synthesis of two-dimensional (2D) FeOOH nanoflakes encapsulated by mesoporous SiO2 (mSiO2) via a simple solution-based method for ammonia synthesis. Due to the sticking of the mSiO2 coating layers and the limited spaces in between, the Fe after reduction retains the 2D morphology, showing high resistance against the sintering in the harsh Haber-Bosch process. Compared to supported Fe particles dispersed on mSiO2 spheres, the coated catalyst shows a significantly improved catalytic activity by 50% at 425 °C. Thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) reveals the existence of a higher density of reactive sites for N2 activation in the 2D Fe catalyst, which is possibly coupled to a larger density of surface defect sites (kinks, steps, point defects) that are generally considered as active centers in ammonia synthesis. Besides the structural impact of the coating on the 2D Fe, the electronic one is elucidated by partially substituting Si with Al in the coating, confirmed by 29Si and 27Al magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR). An increased apparent activation energy (Ea) of the Al-containing catalyst evidences an influence on the nature of the active site. The herein-developed stable 2D Fe nanostructures can serve as an example of a 2D material applied in catalysis, offering the chance of a rational catalyst design based on a stepwise introduction of various promoters, in the coating and on the metal, maintaining the spatial control of the active centers.We report the access to an acyclic iso-secologanin aglycone analogue relevant to secoiridoids and monoterpene indole alkaloids. Its synthesis involved the regioselective allylic alkylation of a linear dienyl carbonate with dimethyl malonate, which was catalyzed by an iridium complex, and an anti-Markovnikov Wacker-type oxidation of the terminal alkene of the branched product that was obtained. The thus-formed aldehyde was engaged in a Pictet-Spengler reaction with tryptamine toward monoterpene indole alkaloids.Fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) have become promising therapeutic targets in various types of cancers. In fact, several selective irreversible inhibitors capable of covalently reacting with the conserved cysteine of FGFRs are currently being evaluated in clinical trials. In this article, we optimized and discovered a novel lead compound 36 with remarkable inhibitory effects against FGFR (1-3), which is a derivative of 2H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine. The irreversible binding to FGFRs was characterized by LC-MS. This compound has been shown to exhibit significant anti-proliferation effects against NCI-H1581 and SNU-16 cancer cell lines both in vitro and in vivo. Compound 36 has also demonstrated a low toxicity profile and adequate pharmacokinetic properties and is currently under validation as a potential drug candidate.Light-absorptivity of organic aerosol may play an important role in visibility and climate forcing, but it has not been assessed as extensively as black carbon (BC) aerosol. Based on multiwavelength thermal/optical analysis and spectral mass balance, this study quantifies BC for the U.S. Interagency Monitoring of Protected Visual Environments (IMPROVE) network while developing a brownness index (γBr) for non-BC organic carbon (OC*) to illustrate the spatiotemporal trends of light-absorbing brown carbon (BrC) content. OC* light absorption efficiencies range from 0 to 3.1 m2 gC-1 at 405 nm, corresponding to the lowest and highest BrC content of 0 and 100%, respectively. find more BC, OC*, and γBr explain >97% of the variability of measured spectral light absorption (405-980 nm) across 158 IMPROVE sites. Network-average OC* light absorptions at 405 nm are 50 and 28% those for BC over rural and urban areas, respectively. Larger organic fractions of light absorption occur in winter, partially due to higher organic brownness. Winter γBr exhibits a dramatic regional/urban-rural contrast consistent with anthropogenic BrC emissions from residential wood combustion. The spatial differences diminish to uniformly low γBr in summer, suggesting effective BrC photobleaching over the midlatitudes. An empirical relationship between BC, ambient temperature, and γBr is established, which can facilitate the incorporation of organic aerosol absorptivity into climate and visibility models that currently assume either zero or static organic light absorption efficiencies.Given the persistence and toxic potencies of metal contaminants in ecosystems, animals, and human beings, they are considered to be hazardous global pollutants. While the lethality of metal toxicities (e.g., LC50) can significantly vary, even within the same species, the underlying mechanisms are less well-understood. In this study, we developed a subcellular two-compartment toxicokinetic-toxicodynamic (TK-TD) model for zebrafish larvae when exposed to four metals (cadmium, lead, copper, and zinc) to reveal whether differences in metal toxicity (LC50 values) were dominated by the TK or TD processes. Results showed that the subcellular TK and TD parameters of the four metals were significantly different, and the bioconcentration factor (BCF) value of copper was higher than those of the other metals. We also found that the TD parameter internal threshold concentration (CIT) was significantly positively correlated to the LC50 values (R2 = 0.7), suggesting a dominant role of TD processes in metal toxicity. Furthermore, the combined parameter CIT/BCF for a metal-sensitive fraction (BCFMSF), which linked exposure to effects through the TK-TD approach, explained up to 89% of the variation in toxicity to the four metals.
